Trash talker gets owned fight3/24/2023 ![]() ![]() It left the Irishman speechless and was especially stinging given that his original matchup at the event would have seen McGregor attempt to capture the lightweight championship. McGregor quickly claimed that he didn't care either, only for Diaz to then question why, if 'The Notorious' didn't care about his championship, he paraded the title wherever he went. The Stockton legend expressed how little he cared for the Irishman's championship. After fracturing his foot in training, dos Anjos was forced to withdraw from the bout. ![]() Prior to making UFC history by becoming the promotion's first simultaneous two-divisional champion, Conor McGregor was scheduled to face then-reigning lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos. Conor McGregor at the UFC 196 pre-fight press conference It was a moment that even renowned trash-talking great, Chael Sonnen, praised. Usman then offered to sign something for 'Funky' as evidence that he had, in fact, been in the presence of fighters who are signed to MMA's top promotion. The future welterweight champion poked fun at how long Askren had spent fighting for supposedly lesser MMA promotions by congratulating him for finally making it into the UFC and sitting at the press conference with his favorite fighters. After subtly mocking Kamaru Usman with the 'Marty' nickname that 'The Nigerian Nightmare' was given during his time wrestling in Nebraska, Askren was caught off-guard by Usman's response. In typical Lewis style, he called the match-up a fight between ‘a fat guy and a little guy.’ Both men have ridiculous power so don’t blink.At the UFC 235 pre-fight conference, however, Askren encountered an unlikely foe who put him in his place. Next, he will take on Ilir Latifi who is moving up from light-heavyweight. He defeated Blagoy Ivanov in his last fight as he looks to have one last crack at a title run.

So when an unknown boxer called him out, it was only going to end one way. Or any other professional combat sports athlete.Įxcept that some moron decided that he did want to challenge Lewis. Ordinary guys just can’t compete with an MMA fighter. Bruce Buffer literally describes him as a ‘brawler.’ That should tell you all you need to know.įurthermore, Lewis is nicknamed ‘The Black Beast.’ Why then, would you want to pick a fight with him? Surely it would be smarter to fight a bear instead? They don’t know how to pass guard or leg kick you. Even when he is getting outpointed, he’s still capable of knocking you out. The UFC heavyweight contender has phenomenal power. Derrick Lewis is one of the toughest men out there. ![]()
